Metered residential water customers and allotments:
(A) The number of permanent residents in each dwelling unit (household) will determine the amount of water that each household will be allowed.
(B) Each dwelling unit (household) shall be required to reduce their daily water usage to a level set by the town in a water-use rationing situation. This level may be determined by either a gallon per day rate or a rate based on a percentage of normal water use levels. The Town Board of Commissioners shall have the authority to determine the amount of water rationed to each household based upon the severity of the water shortage emergency.
(C) (1) If it is found that the residential water allotment provided under this section would create an extraordinary hardship for individual customers, as in the case of special health related requirements, a revised allotment for the particular customer may be established.
(2) Any person aggrieved by a decision relating to such an exemption or variance may file a complaint with the Town Manager (or Clerk) in accordance with the town’s normal administrative procedures.
